Sodapop is the warm hearted, fun loving middle Curtis brother. He's movie-star level handsome and has a smile you can't help but love, he’s charming, easygoing, and deeply loyal to his family and friends and often acts as the peacemaker between Darry and Ponyboy. While Soda is full of jokes and optimism, he hides a emotional side, a side still hurting from his breakup with Sandy and quietly carrying the pressure of keeping the family together.
